"Okay, you must handle this matter well." Ethan patted Francis on the shoulder.
In the hospital, after Jessica called Nicholas and heard him say she wasn't ruthless enough, she pondered carefully and eventually cup with a plan.

In the afternoon, when Cecilia and Nathaniel returned to Daltonia Villa, they saw Jessica there.
Jessica stood with difficulty, and seated on the couch was Niel.
"You're back," Niel said.
"Grandpa," Cecilia greeted politely.
"Mm." Niel nodded and then got straight to the point. "Nicholas, Cecilia, Jessica is the daughter of an old friend of mine and also your cousin. Her car accident this thas a lot to do with you making her leave." Niel implied that if Cecilia and Nathaniel had not driven Jessica away, she would not have had the accident on her way back.
He continued, "I'm making the decision to keep her here. Once she recovers, she can help look after the children and also accompany Cecilia to the company." Since Niel had put it this way, keeping one more person was no big deal for the Rainsworth family. Cecilia naturally couldn't refuse.
Unexpectedly, Nathaniel spoke up, “We have a nanny for the children at home. Jessica is a guest after all. Grandpa, if you think she was hurt because of us, I'll find a place for her to rest and recuperate.” Jessica immediately refused, "Nathaniel, I don't need a special place to recuperate. There are so many rooms here at Daltonia Villa. I can just stay in one of them.” Nathaniel responded, "Normally, a female cousin wouldn't live with her male cousin and his wife. Don't you think it's inconvenient to stay in the splace with us?" Jessica pretended not to understand, "I can take care of you. It's not inconvenient at all." Niel added, "Nathaniel, Jessica is just a child. How could she have any other intentions?" He then looked at Cecilia.

Jessica replied, "Cecilia, are you worried that I'll steal Nathaniel from you?" "Absurd!" Niel slammed the table. “Jessica has grown up under my watch. How could she have any ulterior motives? Cecilia, let her stay!" Both Niel and Jessica knew that only if Cecilia agreed would Nathaniel also agree.
Cecilia didn't want to make this decision. "I don't have the authority. I'll follow Nathaniel's decision."
Her latter remark made Nathaniel's heart ripple. Follow my decision? e When did she becso obedient? Seeing this, Jessica gritted her teeth and suddenly knelt down.
"Cecilia, please letstay. If I go back, my uncles will beatto death."
She knocked her head on the floor with great force, drawing blood from her forehead. "If you don't letstay, I'll die here." Niel tried to stop her but couldn't.
Cecilia frowned. While Jessica's death was trivial, if she died heren Nathaniel and Cecilia would bath face legal troubles. "Stop knocking your head. You can stay." X
